While I am really excited to be back in South America, returning to the Pacific Northwest for six week allowed me to pursue my favorite pastime, fly fishing, on a number of occasions and in some familiar locations. July and early August provided a great opportunity to visit some trout rivers, pursue some warm water fishes, some summer steel head, and cast a fly into Puget Sound.

The best part of fly fishing is often the unexpected natural events you witness while out on the water for extended periods of time. In this case it was a greedy tufted puffin gorging itself on a school of candlefish. |
